I first joined Twitter in January of 2007—I’m user number 698,363—and it’s pretty much the only social network I still engage with; the only others I ever really used were Facebook and Instagram, and I’ve since deleted both of those. But over time, I (like many, many others) found my Twitter usage was trending in a direction I didn’t really like, so in June of 2019, I decided to declare “Twitter bankruptcy” and start again. This is basically an archive of all of my tweets since then.

Unbelievably disappointed, but I understand the decision. At least it looks like I’ll be able to re-apply for 2021 with my 2020 qualifying time. 🤞🏻 https://t.co/D8zTgrtEHk

The @BAA has announced that the 124th Boston Marathon will be held as a virtual event, following Boston Mayor Martin Walsh’s cancellation of the marathon as a mass participation road running event due to the COVID-19 pandemic. https://t.co/tlIdvsU9sq

Steven Levy, writing for @WIRED, may have the only sensible take on the WFH vs WFO debate that I’ve read this week: “My view is that you may be able to get by for a very long time without physical interaction. But eventually, it will catch up with you.” https://t.co/vRRjq6jPcQ

@mrburger007@MarkMulvey If only everyone paid attention to the “appropriate pre-conditioning” part in general! A lot of the “running is bad for your joints” stuff could be avoided by people being sensible. It’s like me trying to deadlift 200lbs and then saying lifting is bad because I injured myself.

@MarkMulvey From my reading, shoes are less of a contributor than most people think. Surface more so, but still not decisive. “Too much” is relative to the individual; if you try to go from 0-marathon in a week, you will hurt yourself, but that’s not the fault of the distance or the sport.
